Similar to the previous work, the work is based on the political situation that has developed as a result of civil strife in Spain.
An old shoe, an apple pierced with a fork and other objects symbolizing the tragedy of the life of an ordinary person are located on the canvas. This work shows the despair and sad consequences of any war.
